Mega Wawa Basket – Wavecrash

$105

Same day dispatch

Bolga mega wawa basket, oblong with a double weave. Two layers of elephant grass coil through the body instead of one, a technique only the most experienced weavers take on, and it’s what gives the mega wawa its wide, open shape while keeping it sturdy even when loaded.

A handwoven woven basket with bright green stripe accents over a natural-and-black weave and a rust band through the middle, finished with leather handles. Solid enough for daily use.

Dimensions: Width 33cm, height 24cm, length 62cm.

About our MEGA WAWA BASKETS

The Mega Wawa is a double weave basket, made with two layers of elephant grass through the body instead of one, and only the most experienced weavers take this on. That extra layer is what gives the Mega wawa its density and sturdiness.

FAQs

How does the Mega Wawa’s shape compare to other Bolga baskets?
The round Bolga basket shares the same everyday carry purpose, just in a round profile instead of the Mega Wawa’s oblong shape, and the large and XL round baskets are the closest match in size if a round profile suits better.
The oval Bolga basket is narrower and slimmer overall, where the Mega Wawa carries a roomier body

Are mega wawa baskets available undyed, in natural elephant grass?
Yes, the Mega wawa range includes a natural basket alongside the dyed colourways. It skips the dyeing step entirely, so the grass goes straight from drying to weaving

What other large Bolga baskets does Bashiri carry, besides the Mega Wawa?
The XL round basket and the hamper basket are two other large options, both handwoven from elephant grass by the same Bolgatanga weavers as the Mega Wawa. The XL round keeps a wide, open profile, while the hamper basket is shaped more for laundry and storage.
